Streptomycete isolator strain M0137 showed cytotoxic effect on THP-1 cells. One of the purified substances produced from the strain was identified as nonadecanoic acid. Morphological and physiological properties, phylogenetic analysis, and genomic fingerprinting of strain M0137 were determined. Strain M0137 showed a high similarity with Streptomyces scabiei, phenotypically and phylogenetically. In contrast, genomic fingerprinting and G+C content analysis revealed that strain M0137 could be distinguished from S. scabiei ATCC49173$\^$T/. We propose to name strain M0137 as Streptomyces scabiei Subsp.

The substance 0116p, which exhibits cytotoxicity against human macrophage cell line THP-1, was isolated from a mycelial extract of Streptomyces scabiei subsp. chosunensis M0137. The cytotoxic substance was purified by Diaion-HP2O adsorption, solvent extraction, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, and silica-gel column chromatography. The molecular formula is C$\_$19/H$\_$38/O$\_$2/ (MW301.10) based on elemental and spectrometric analysis. It was identified as nonadecanoic acid by NMR spectral data. It exhibits cytotoxic activities in various human cancer cell lines, including A549, SK-OV-3, SK-MEL-2 and HCT-15. In addition, 0116p also inhibits IL-12 production in lipopolysaccharide-activated macrophages.

The 95% aqueous EtOH extract was obtanied from the fruiting body of Russula subnigricans. Repeated silica gel column chromatography and preparative TLC afforded one fatty acid and three chlorinated hydroquinone derivatives. They were identified as nonadecanoic acid (1), 2,6-dichloro-4-methoxyphenol (2), russuphelin A (3), and russuphelin E (4) on the basis of several spectral data (MS, $^1H$ and $^{13}C$-NMR, including HMBC).

Streptomyces scabiei subsp. chosunensis M0137. nonadecanoic acid producer. showed the highest protease activity when grown in OSY medium (oatmeal 1.5%, soybean meal 2%, dried yeast 1 %) supplemented with. glycerol (1 %) and CaCO3 (0.1 %). Two forms of protease(SS-1 and SS-2) were fractionated and purified through Ultrogel AcA 54 gel filtration and DEAE-sepharose CL-6B column chromatography. Both proteases were practically stable in the pH range of 6-10. The optimal pH for the activities of both protease 88-1 and 8S-2 were 7.5 and 8.0. respectively. (omitted)

In the process of tuna for food, the unprocessed parts of the whole fish range from 30 to 35%, which are mostly used as animal feed stuff, and wasted. Thus, preliminary study on the recycling of the by-product was done to ultimately produce highly valuable products. The study was peformed on skin, skin flesh, tail flesh, dark flesh and abdominal flesh of the tuna. First, crude protein was the most abundant in the skin at 26.31%. About 21% of the crude protein were found in the other samples. Second, crude fat was greatly obtained in the skin at 15.58%. Interestingly, only 0.75% of crude fat was found in the dark flesh. Third, vitamin C and vitamin B group were highly measured in the abdominal flesh and the dark flesh, respectively. Importantly, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, C22 : 6 $\omega$ -3) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, C22 : 6 $\omega$ -3) which are highly unsaturated fatty acids, were abundant in the skin and skin flesh. To determine the effect of high temperature to the unprocessed parts, the samples were exposed to steam for 30 min. After this processing, 15-methylhexadecanoic acid (i-17 : 0) were in- creased in the skin flesh and the dark flesh. Furthermore, 3-hydroxytetradecanoic acid (3-OH 14 : 0), heptadecanoic acid (17 : 0), 2-hydroxyhexadecanoic acid (2-OH 16 : 0) and nonadecanoic acid (19 : 0) hat were not found before with steam were detected. The DHA and EPA in the dark flesh and the DHA in the skin were stable, respectively, even after the treatment.
